Out of the frying pan and into the pancreas! @angelakrusephd at @spragginslab used #3DMicroscopy to open a window pane within the pancreas showing a neural node. The pancreas makes enzymes necessary for the pandemonium of digestion, a real Pandora's box if ever there was one!

Always a surprise how well Chris can image bone by MALDI IMS. Lots of interest at @asmsnews in our work with @CassatLab on bone infection. @VanderbiltChem

@ClaireF_Scott ‘s first #ASMS2023 poster on her work developing methods for multimodal imaging of white matter hyperintensities was a hit! @VanderbiltCDB

We always get asked about reproducibility and QC/QA.. @KateDjambazova had the imaging community’s attention with her work addressing this challenge at #ASMS2023 as part of our @_hubmap and @KPMProject efforts. @VanderbiltCDB

Integrated MALDI and CODEX - not your typical poster by a first year research assistant! The talented @ElliePingry crushed it! @VanderbiltCDB #ASMS2023

Two incredible oral presentations coming from the Spraggins lab at #ASMS2023 @AllisonEsselman will unravel the molecular distribution of glomeruli using microscopy-directed high spatial resolution IMS, while jackie dives deep into the molecular distribution of S. aureus abscess

Congrats to Dr. Emma Guiberson (@chEMMAstry) for a successful defense of her work on the effect of bile acids on C. diff. infection! She is off to study gut microbes @Stanford. @SpragginsLab @CaprioliLab @EricSkaar lab.

Much to celebrate this week so we ventured out for a lab lunch - @chEMMAstry's defense and a bitter-sweet send-off to @j_spathies (incoming @VUBasicSciences grad student) and Lin Xu (@_hubmap fellow), who are both wrapping up summer research experiences in our lab.
